Homelessness
Faith and Belief Roundtable – Migration and Homelessness
Faith and Belief organisations and networks contribute in many different ways to society, especially to those most disadvantaged. This includes people experiencing homelessness as well as those seeking asylum, refugees and other migrants, many of whom are facing such challenging times. For those who face barriers to mainstream or local authority services, for example if they have no recourse to public funds, it is often Faith and Belief that people turn to. They are trusted, embedded in communities in a unique way and can offer spiritual, emotional and practical advice, guidance and care.

Women’s Rough Sleeping Census
Greater Manchester is participating in the Women’s Census.
In the last week of September, we will be talking to women about their recent experiences of not having a safe place to stay. This research will help us understand women’s experiences with homelessness and rough sleeping and advocate for improved support and services for women.
Can you help?
The Boot Centre are looking for feedback and input from women with lived experience of homelessness and rough sleeping.
Join on: Tuesday 3rd September, 12pm at The Booth Centre, Pimblett St, M3 1FU.
